Thus, knowing their number is a must as they must also know that Tanzanian water bodies without accidents is possible,\u201d stressed Mr Ndomba.<\/p>\n<p>To make it most successful, he added, TASAC was set to embark on life-jacket campaigns that would make sure nobody gets in any water vessel without such a rescue facility.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, there is 100 per cent surety of their rescue, whenever they would be called when any vessel will be involved in water accident.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne can even relax and read a book on water while in life-jacket, because it is composed of a reflector to show his\/her whereabouts. If that isn\u2019t enough then the jacket has a whistle, of which a victim can blow to let rescuers see her\/him&#8230;&#8230;Thus, the jacket is number one rescuer. We are engineering this, but first seeking full support from the central government and other stakeholders,\u201d said the Corporation\u2019s boss.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, Marine Services Company Limited (MSCL) Executive Director, Mr Eric Hamiss, commended the TASAC move towards improving security services in the water, especially this time when the government is set to increase Marine vessels in all major Tanzanian water bodies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AfricaPress-Tanzania: ABOUT 400m\/- has been set aside for installation of Security and Rescue Centre in the Lake Victoria before the end of this year.
